Information about the electrical activity of the heart is provided by the resting ECG test. This well-known procedure has been used in medical diagnostics for many years and is a completely pain-free method. The equipment collects electrical signals from electrodes placed on the limbs and chest, then converts them and plots them on a paper strip in the form of various curves.
This drawing provides information about the number of beats per minute, cardiac conduction disturbances, arrhythmias and possible damage to the heart muscle.
A resting ECG is an essential part of a complete cardiological examination.
